 | Great Frigatebird Fregata minor Galapagos Islands, Ecuador. Male,
with his throat puffed up in full display. The greenish gloss to the
plumage (instead of purple) separates this from Magnificent Frigatebird. |

I don't think it is possible to ID this individual to species, but
please tell me if you think otherwise. This photo was the inspiration
for the logo for Tropical Birding.  |
